Title: Exhaust manifold
Post by jonnycab on Jul 25^th, 2007, 4:59pm

Does anyone know the torque (Nm) settings for the exhaust manifold to cylinder head ?

Can't seem to find it anywhere :)

JC, Go to THIS (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/engmanuals.htm) page and select the relevant engine ....2.3? and scroll through the PDF pages which have all the detail you need I think. HTH. Mike. ;)

Cheers guys...I was looking on the right page before, just must have missed it.

14Nm...for the manifold studs ?....that doesn't seem very tight....can anyone confirm that this correct ? :)

Bought a new exhaust manifold gasket from FMD today & asked them to check the torque for the manifold to head.

It's 23 Nm & not 14 Nm. I think that the studs into the head may be 14 Nm but the nuts holding the manifold on are 23 Nm :)
